Bloodline Survival Guide

Later, Vidal started to do something that surprised Chen Zhen.

Vidal wants to rebuild everything.

He wants to restore the previous world and resurrect all the previous gods.

Chen Zhen watched Vidal jump into the blood-red sea of ​​the world.

He searched for needles in a haystack to find the corpses of fallen gods. He searched in vain, but he couldn't find anything... He tried to find Odin's armor, a little trace left by his father and brother... But obviously, Haitai Big, and Vidal was so small he couldn't find anything.

Later he began to look for materials, trying to re-forge Mjolnir (Thor's hammer).He also tried to rebuild the Rainbow Bridge, and even tried to replant a world tree...

Vidal is busy all day long, trying to piece together the past that has long since disappeared.

He was doing all this with full expectation, and every action was full of motivation and hope, and he told himself that he would succeed.Odin said that he represents new life and hope, right? He must be able to make those who were born in the past reborn on this land, and he must make his lonely and hopeless heart grow hope again.

Vidal has been busy for so long that Chen Zhen feels tired looking at him.He has personally experienced everything, trying to reproduce the old world in his memories...

Clearly, Vidal failed.

After all, the past can never be undone, not even by God.Even if all the things he rebuilt have the shadow of the past, but no matter what, they can't really become the past.

Wall-E watched Vidal kneeling in front of the collapsed Rainbow Bridge...

He wanted to step forward to comfort Vidal, but Vidal immediately stood up.

Vidal has failed too many times.Those disappointments accumulated into deep fatigue, making Vidal's slender back look shaky.

His confidence and hope were shattered again and again.Vidal tried his best to give his time and divine energy, his expectations and everything, but he never succeeded, not even once.

Vidal stared at the wreckage of the collapsed Rainbow Bridge in front of him, and remained silent for a long, long time.

Vidal looked at the collapsed rainbow bridge in front of him, this is how many times he failed.He has changed many materials to build this bridge, but none of them can match the beauty and sturdiness of the previous ones.

In the past, when he saw failures, he would be sad for a while, and then quickly cheered up and said to Wali: "Oh, why did you fail again... But it doesn't matter, I know that I must have missed a process, although I don't know what the father and the others are before. How to build it, but I think I must have missed some process... By the way, Wall-E, last time we went to find that together..."

Not today.

Vidal looked ahead silently.

He can't even get it all over again.He was left here alone, and the catastrophe destroyed everything and turned Asgard into a hell that tortured his mind... No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't go back to the past.

He almost used up all his divine power, but he still couldn't get back the Asgard he wanted.

Vidal suddenly said softly: "Wali, I don't want to see this world anymore."

Wali immediately comforted him proficiently and said: "Your Highness, let's try again, everything will be fine, slowly, you will forget."

Vidal shook his head.

He paused, then turned around, and said to Wall-E with a blank expression: "Wali, what I said is true, I don't want to see this world anymore, I'm really tired."

Then he turned around and started walking in a certain direction...

Chen Zhen followed him and saw Vidal walking step by step to... the previous Landvedi.

Chen Zhen was surprised because Vidal had never been to this place since he dragged Fenrir here and resettled him, and then took off his boots and returned them to Fenrir.

Maybe it's the fear of facing it.Chen Zhen actually understood very well. If it were him, he would not know how to face that wolf.Even if you're dead, it's still hard to face... After all, just thinking about it is a heart-piercing pain.

Vidal ran and finally found the place where he buried Fenrir.

After a long time, it was covered with luxuriant grass.

He reached out and touched the lush green plants above, then bent his knees...knelt down.

Not knowing why, Wali could only kneel down with him.

Vidal bowed his head and thought for a long time, then he began to speak.

"Wali, I lost Asgard, I lost everything in the past, I lost my father, my brother, my subjects. I lost everything I loved, I lost Fenrir, I lost everything."

As he spoke, tears fell from his blue eyes again.

Chen Zhen just looked at his side face and felt that Vidal must be in pain.

Vidal cried for a moment, then suddenly removed the pale gold headband that tied his hair.

In the next second, the hair band quickly widened and lengthened in his hands, and flew out to tie up Wali's body.

Wali looked at Vidal without knowing why, and when he saw Vidal's expression clearly, his face finally changed.

There were still tears and despair on Vidal's beautiful face, but Wall-E saw something even more terrifying...

Chen Zhen on the side also couldn't help feeling flustered. He didn't know why, but he always felt suddenly sad. He seemed to feel Vidal's pain.

The next thing he saw Vidal's body start to glow.

Vidal's body seemed to become transparent.

Chen Zhen could see a glowing, galaxy-like thing flowing through his body, and then slowly gathering on his head, the range narrowed again, and the light cluster became smaller and brighter , After the final collection was completed—the lights all drilled into his eyes.

The forest trembled slightly because of Vidal.

Wal-E has already burst into tears: "Your Highness Vidal, what are you going to do! You can't die and commit suicide, you are the only god left in the world..."

Chen Zhen was startled, he was going to commit suicide?

Those shiny things... are Vidal's divine power?

Vidal ignored Wali, he stretched out his hand, put his fingers straight into his eyes and picked hard——

Then he dug out the two astonishingly bright light clusters in his eyes...

For no reason, Chen Zhen felt that his eyes were also in severe pain. The impact of the picture made him feel the despair of Vidal in front of him.

Vidal said lightly: "Wali, I don't want to be a god anymore, and I don't want to see the world anymore. I'm tired, and I want to find my father and brother."

He was out of sight.

Vidal's original bright and clean blue eyes were gone, and now they were replaced by two blood holes, and the blood slid down his eye sockets, it was a drop of terrifying blood tears.

Wali looked at the pair of glowing eyeballs in Vidal's hand, the pair of eyeballs that gathered all of Vidal's divine power... He knew that Vidal really didn't want to live anymore, a panic that was about to be thrown away quickly Sweeping his mind, Wal-E cried out to Vidal: "Your Highness! You can't do this! You... What should you do if you leave the world? You are the only remaining god, forest Who should protect..."

Vidal's tone was calm: "The world will continue. I have created creatures, and they will continue along the trajectory of destiny. As for the forest... Let the descendants of Fenrir guard the forest. He likes the forest as much as I do. Wa Power, I deliver to you my last oracle as the god of the forest: You succeed me as the founder of the world order. The descendants of Fenrir will be as powerful as he is, and they can become wolves at the full moon. , turn into a human at sunrise, so as not to disturb humans. This race is half wolf and half human, descendant of Fenrir, who will replace me and guard the forest and the earth."

Wall-E: "No...Your Highness..."

After Vidal gave the last oracle, he casually threw the pair of glowing eyes in his hand to the ground.

The last god in this world also gave up his godhood.

He turned around, barefoot, wearing a white robe, stumbling, groping, out of the forest.

Chen Zhen followed him, watching Vidal staggering all the way down the mountain, and did not know how many somersaults he fell along the way... He was no longer a god, and he still couldn't see anything, so he could only walk forward in such a reckless and boundless way ...

Finally, Vidal came to the sea of ​​​​worlds that had turned blood red.

The stench of the sea is unbearable. This is the sea where all the creatures of the past are buried.It represents heaviness and uncertainty, so it will always be shrouded in darkness.

Vidal walked to the seaside, and after smelling the stench coming from his nostrils and confirming that it was the place he was looking for, he jumped into the sea of ​​blood without hesitation.

The sea engulfed Vidal.

Chen Zhen's body was floating in the air, watching Vidal's body sinking and floating with the blood-red sea water...

His white robe was dyed blood red, and it had turned into a blood red robe.

He floated and floated along the scarlet sea for a long, long time.

Until it floated somewhere, eight birds suddenly flew in the sky... Chen Zhen stared at it, and felt that these birds... were very familiar in size, a bit like the bats Chen Zhen knew, but much larger than bats, with Green eyes and sharp teeth.Maybe they shouldn't be called 'birds', they are just creatures born of resentment and death in this sea of ​​blood. They can only hover above the sea of ​​blood in search of food, but they can never be full.Chen Zhen didn't know what to call these creatures, so he called them... let's call them 'bats' for now.

Attracted by Vidal, they flapped their wings and circled over Vidal, and opened their mouths to speak in a language that Vidal could understand: "Who are you, why are you sleeping on the sea of ​​blood?"

Vidal actually smiled, and he replied to the bat, "I'm not sleeping, I'm just here waiting to die. I'm not someone, I'm just someone waiting to die."

"Will you die if you wait like this?"

Vidal's tone was very firm: "Everyone will die, even a god will die."

The bats looked at Vidal carefully, and they couldn't wait to ask: "Before you die, would you like to let us eat your body? There is no food here, and there are too few residues in the sea. We are about to starve to death. "

Vidal thought for a while, then he smiled, and nodded directly: "Of course, you can eat, and I can help you not to starve before you die. But when you eat, listen to me and tell me that my life can I want someone to tell my story, I'm so lonely, I want to tell my story."

The eight bats jumped down when they heard Vidal's promise, and began to frantically devour Vidal's delicious flesh, without giving him an answer.

Vidal didn't seem to care whether there was an answer or not.He accepted as if these bats, and began to tell his story with a smile:

"I used to be a god who didn't like to talk, and other gods thought I hated listening to them, and they were careful when talking to me. Later..."

He spoke very quickly, as if he was afraid that they would not be able to finish listening.His body was ripped apart, and was constantly pecked by the hungry birds... But he didn't seem to feel any pain at all, and just let them eat like that.

When the story was told that he killed Fenrir and the dusk of the gods, a bird that was eating his heart raised its head and commented: "You are so pitiful."

Vidal nodded and admitted, "Yeah, I'm so pitiful."

He continued to tell his story.

Talking about the moment when they met Fenrir for the first time, they looked at each other.Talking about Fenrir sitting on the opposite side of him cautiously and saying to himself, "The sun is very good today", "You are very suitable to wear white"... He was talking about the dirty wolf he met in the underworld. The heartache and unbearable... talking about his heart beating when he was pressed and kissed by the wolf... talking about Fenrir proposing to him, kissing his ankle, and saying to him: Vidal, I love you.

Talking about how they didn't see each other for a long time, talking about how he missed Fenrir at times, how he killed Fenrir.

The lead bat looked up at Vidal carefully.He was infected by the sadness in Vidal's tone, and couldn't help but stop eating.

It saw that while Vidal was talking, the two blood holes in his eyes continued to draw blood and tears, staining the delicate and beautiful facial features into chaos and mottled.

"Those pasts are really painful for you." It couldn't help saying to Vidal, "It's okay, we ate you, and you will die immediately, and if you die, just forget everything, and you won't Lonely, and not lonely anymore. There are your family and friends in this sea of ​​blood, and they will always be with you."

Vidal responded with a smile: "You are right, eat me up, I can't wait."

So the bird swallowed Vidal's heart in one gulp.

Chen Zhen watched the eight bats eat Vidal's limbs, heart, and head respectively.

Perhaps the smell of fresh flesh was too delicious in this sea, and later more bats were attracted here... They swarmed up in groups, surrounded Vidal like a black hurricane, scrambling for food Looking at Vidal who was eaten to pieces by the original eight bats.

Soon Chen Zhen could no longer hear Vidal's voice.

He knew that Vidal was dead, completely dead.His body was eaten clean by these hungry bats, leaving only an empty skeleton and the blood-stained white robe pecked torn by the bats, floating alone on the sea.

Chen Zhen looked at the skeleton sadly... He was thinking, why did he die like this, when suddenly a small wooden boat floated on the sea, it was Wali.

Wali rowed over with a panicked expression... When he saw the scene in front of him, he covered his face in collapse, and wept bitterly into the sea of ​​blood.

Wally cried for a long time.

Those bats ate up Vidal's body, and they were still reluctant to leave. They landed on the skeleton and greedily licked the meat residue, relishing the delicious taste just now.

The eight bats that ate Vidal's main body parts had undergone some changes in their bodies. They slowly grew human heads, feet, hands, noses, eyes, and mouths...

Immediately afterwards, all the bats that ate Vidal's body slowly turned into human bodies.They lost their wings, turned into human form unexpectedly, fell into the sea of ​​blood, and looked at their bodies blankly.

After Wall-E calmed down, he raised his head.

He said to the group of bats that turned into humans: "What you eat is the last god in the world. He is called Vidal. Although he has abandoned his godhood, it is the body of a god after all. You They are lowly creatures in the sea of ​​blood, how can they eat the body of a god? You will be punished!"

Wali brought the boat close to the skeleton, and picked up Vidal's broken bones bit by bit.

As he picked it up, he cursed in a resentful tone: "I am the person he appointed to take over the management of the world. Now I will replace Vidal and judge you god-killing monsters-you eat gods, and you will only live in the world forever." In the darkness, you will live in hunger. When you are hungry, you can only drink blood to live... You cannot walk in the sun, the day is your forbidden zone, you will never be able to walk freely in the sun, you can only live In the dark, drag out an ignoble existence! Your blood will be forever cold! You will never be able to feel love!"

The 'bat' who had spoken to Vidal before raised his hand and interrupted Wall-E eagerly: "We only ate him with God's permission! He agreed!"

Wali sneered: "But you are still killing gods."

The 'bat' had some sympathy for Vidal before, so he said: "Because this god looks very painful, he seems to want to die, I think we are actually helping him, he is so pitiful... this god, still Is there any help?"

Wall-E had already pieced together Vidal's skeleton silently while speaking.

He took out a shiny bead from his pocket.

Wally looked at the thing in his hand with red eyes, that Vidal's eye.

He said: "Vidal is unwilling to look at this world anymore, but everything in this world today is what he built. He may feel that he has not done a good job, but he represents the beginning. He is always living in the past, but he should have future."

While talking, Wali closed his eyes and rummaged through that eye with his hands... Then he took something out of that shiny eyeball and threw it into the sea casually.

In the next second, he crushed the shiny eyes on his hands, and evenly sprinkled those shiny lights on every corner of Vidal's skeleton...

Soon something strange happened.Vidal's body actually slowly grew flesh and veins... The growth speed was astonishingly fast, and soon, the new Vidal was grown.

It was a new Vidal, as good as everything in the first birth.

The human bats were all amazed, and the leading one said, "He doesn't smell as good as before. He's a normal human now, isn't he?"

Wali said: "Yes." Wali pointed to the thing he threw on the sea, "I took out Vidal's painful memory, and now Vidal is resurrected, but he is just an ordinary person. But I want Vidal to live, to see the future, the new world he created, and to have no more pain. I want him to have eternal life... When he wills to wake up, he will wake up."

Wali pointed to the leading eight bats and said: "You are the first to eat Vidal's complete body, and you will always bear the responsibility of protecting him. I will give Vidal's body to you...Who ate Vidal's body?" Dahl's heart?"

The bat that spoke to Vidal before hurried forward: "It's me."

Of all the bats, only he has a mind.Because he ate Vidal's heart and head.So only he would have compassion for Vidal and understand Wal-E's words.

Wally nodded.He took off the golden headband wrapped around his wrist and handed it to the hand of the bat in front of him.

"You will have eternal life. Eternal life is my gift to you, and it is also a punishment." Every word Wal-E said was heavy, "Your mission is to guard and wait for Vidal to wake up. You must protect him and let him He is happy to have eternity, to see the new world... You know, you owe him this."

The bat looked at the golden ribbon in its hand, and nodded solemnly, "We will definitely repay this god. This is the punishment God gave us, and it is also our glory."

Upon hearing the promise, Wali handed Vidal's body to the bat, and rowed away sadly.

While the bat was hugging Vidal's body, he suddenly saw the faintly glowing round bead floating on the sea surface.

That's what Wal-E pulled out... Vidal's painful and beautiful memory.

He looked at the bead, and couldn't help but muttered to himself: "It's such a precious memory, although it's painful, but it's really a pity to lose it like this."

So he carefully squeezed it into his hand and took it away.

He looked at his companion behind him.

He was still hugging Vidal, and looked at the companions in front of him who were constantly struggling to transform from birds to humans...the amount of flesh they ate varied, and the one that ate the most was only eight including himself.

He thought for a while, and said to the seven people in front of him: "We eat the most and sin the most. So we should bear more pain, and we should manage our companions."

The seven people in front of him hadn't enlightened much yet, they looked at him ignorantly, and nodded hesitantly.

Chen Zhen stared blankly at all this...

Everything coincides.Chen Zhen was in a daze... understood what...

It turns out that this is... the initial appearance of the eight ancestors of the blood race.

And I... was the one who woke up—

Vidal.
